AMONGST vegetable fibres adapted to the use of mankind in the fabri- 
cation of garments or coverings, and for ornamentation, flax occupies a 
conspicuous place, both in respect of extended application, and the antiquity of 
its use. The Phoenicians and the Egyptians were proficient in flax culture, as 
well as in linen manufacture ; with them " purple and fine linen " were synony- 
mous with refinement and wealth. 

The skilful manipulation of the flax fibre was well understood and prac- 
tised by the children of Israel. In Tyre and Sidon, as Isaiah tells us, "they 
work in fine flax, and weave net works." In all subsequent ages as history 
shows, flax has been grown, spun, and woven : it has been worn by priests, 
sages, and warriors for attire or adornment on occasions of honor or display. 
The maids of Athens, the fair dames of Rome, the bonnie lassies of Saxon- 
land and Scandinavia, the beauties of France, have all been familiar with dis- 
taff and spindle ; and through the long vista of the past have tuned their 
ditties to the merry whirl of the spinning-wheel. Show one of these homely 
implements to any New Englander past middle age, and a flood of eloquence 
will be unloosed. You will soon learn about the sister or the mother whose 
ready fingers deftly spun the smoothest yarn, from home-grown flax on the old 
farm, in the far off days when thrift ruled the household : wild strawberries 
tasted /tie strawberries then, and the speckled trout if anything, rather wanted 
to be caught by the boys, so it seemed. 

Our farmers no longer grow their flax for home consumption, and the 
maidens have lost the art of spinning yarn ; and yet flax holds its own in our 
homes; with netting, knitting, crochet, and outline work as vehicles for the 
display of its adaptability, it advances to still more artistic forms of service ; 
and it requires not the eye of a prophet to foresee the continuous thread of its 
use extending through ages yet to come, in even more beautiful forms than any 
attained in the past. 

"And the whirling of a wheel 

Dull and drowsy makes me feel; 
Gleam the long threads in the sun, 

While within this brain of mine 
Cobwebs, brighter and more fine 

By the busy wheel are spun.'* 

No more fascinating way of filling up the spare moments could be devised 
than in working out the designs herein given, or in the origination of new forms 
and fancies in crochet work, or in designing colored outlines upon felt or linen. 



REAL SCOTCH CROCHET THREAD. 



In order to knit or crochet well it is necessary to understand the terms used. 

Knitting. 

To CAST ON — make a loop in your thread, and place it on the needle in your 
left hand ; when with your right-hand needle, knit this stitch ; but, instead of 
letting off the first, place the second stitch on the same needle with the first. 
Repeat this till you have the required amount of stitches. 

To MAKE A STITCH — is to bring the thread forward or put it over; if after a 
seamed stitch, turn thread quite around needle. 

To NARROW — decrease by knitting two stitches together. 

To SLIP A STITCH — pass it from one needle to the other without knitting it. 

Twist stitch — like plain knitting, only the needle should be put in the back 
of the stitch, instead of front, after which knit as usual. 

To seam — is to knit with the thread before the needle. 

To BIND OFF — knit two plain stitches, pass first over the second, and so on 
to the last stitch, when draw thread through. 



Crocheting. 

To many this work seems quite difficult as they cannot understand the 
changes. Now we give an illustrated plate of stitches which appeared some 
years ago in the Ladies' Floral Cabinet, but is of great assistance to crocheters. 

Chain-stitch — is the foundation of all crochet. A loop is made on the hook, 
and through this the thread is drawn. A second loop being thus made, the 
thread is drawn through it ; and so on, until chain is length required. 

Slip-stitch. — A chain being made, the hook is inserted in the last stitch but 
one to that already on the needle, and the thread drawn through both together ; 
then in the next stitch, and so on. This stitch is used to fasten off portions of 
crochet a good deal, rendering it firm and neat. 

Single Crochet {Sc). — In this the thread is drawn through the chain of 
the last row, and forms a second loop on the needle. Through the two loops 
the thread is drawn at once. 



REAL SCOTCH CROCHET THREAD. 



Double Crochet {Dc). — The thread is passed once over the needle, before 
the hook is inserted in the chain through ^Yhich the thread is drawn ; there will 
thus be three loops on the needle. Draw the thread through t-wo^ which leaves 
one and the new loop. Draw the thread through these ; thus, by this complet- 
ing the stitch. 




Treble Crochet (71) is worked precisely like/^r; but the thread being 
put twice over the needle, instead of once, the stitch is completed by drawing 
the thread three times through two loops. 

Long Treble Crochet {Long 71:). — Like Tc, except that the thread is put 
three times around the needle, and drawn four successive times through two 
loops. 

P, or PicoT — is made by chaining three stitches and making one Sc, in first 
stitch of chain. 

Half Treble. — Turn the thread over the hook, pass the hook through a 
stitch of the foundation, draw through, turn thread again over hook, draw 
thread through all three loops at once 

Cross Treble. — *Turn the thread twice around the hook, insert the hook 
into a stitch, turn the thread over the hook, draw through the stitch, turn the 
thread over the hook, draw through two loops together, turn the thread over 
the hook, pass- by two stitches, insert the hook into the next stitch, draw 
through, (pass thread over the hook, draw through two loops) twice, pass the 
thread over the hook, draw through all the loops on the hook together, two 
chain, one treble into centre of cross treble.* Repeat from * to *

without directions. 

With same materials make a chain of 91 stitches. 

This work may be done narrower, both lace and insertion, by chaining a less 
number at beginning. 

To do dc in this lace or insertion, instead of drawing through two loops at a 
time draw through all 3 at once. To do the tc, of this put thread over once, in- 
sert, draw thread through 2 stitches, then through last 2.

Vandyke Crocheted Lace. 




Same materials as before. Make a foundation chain length required, into 
which work 1 chain, 1 dc, into every 2nd stitch. 

Second Rozu. — * 5 chain, 2 tc, missing 3 chain. * 

Repeat from * to *. 

Third Row. — 1 chain, 1 dc, into every other stitch and fasten off. 

Make half stars separately, work a 14 chain, form a round, and surround it 
with slip stitch ; into the upper half of round work 7 loops, putting them into 
the stitches one after the other. The first loop requires 24 chain, second and 
third 16 each, middle loop 24, repeat first 3 loops reversing their order; unite 
the plain part of the round to the border, crocheting them together, and fasten 
the stars at a distance of 48 stitches from each other.

Repeat from * to *. 

Eifth Ro7u. — Work a dc into every chain except the one in the centre loop, 
in this one the increase is managed and requires 1 dc, 2 chain, 1 dc, for the 
open lattice part work 4 chain, catch it into 3d row, and then 4 chain. 

Repeat 5th row eleven times, always increasing at the pointed stitch, and for 
the lattice part work a plain 8 chain alternately with 4 chain caught into 3d 
stitch of previous row and 4 chain. Work the border from illustration. 



Beautiful Edge, Crocheted. 




Of the same thread as previously described, do the insertion part first by 
making a chain of 23 stitches. Work the insertion like design until it is 
length required, then add the heading and bottom finish. When No. 17 REAL 
SCOTCH CROCHET THEAD and coarse steel hook is used, a pretty 
lambrequixi may be made of this design. Add tassels between points. 



Another Wide Edge. 



Of same materials given before. Do the insertion part commencing with a

(Boston Globe June 20.) 




Materials. — Finlayson, Bousfield & Co.'s, REAL SCOTCH CROCHET 
THREAD, about 2 balls No. 60 or coarser if wished. Steel crochet hook. 



Begin at the middle rosette, which is worked in the following manner :— Close 
a foundation of twelve st (stitches) in a ring with one si (slip stitch), and on 
this ring crochet the first round. Six times alternately, five ch (chain stitch), 
one sc (single crochet) on the second following foundation stitch. 

2d round. — On each chain stitch scallop of the preceding round one sc, one s 
dc (short double crochet), five dc (double crochet), one sdc, one sc. 

3d round.— Oxi^ sc on each sc of the round before the last (the first, 
round passing the needle around the vertical veins of this round on the under 
side of the work), 6 ch, after each sc. 

4ih round. — Like the second, but work always 7 dc on the ch scallops instead 
of the five dc referred to in the second round. 

jt/i round. — Like the third, but instead of the six ch given there, always work 
seven ch. 

6th rotcnd, — Like the second, but work nine dc instead of five dc. Enlarge 
each ch scallop of the seventh round again by one st. 

8th round. Increase the dc of each scallop by two dc. 

For the remainder these two rounds are worked in the following manner: — 
9th round. — Always alternately one ch, one dc on the two upper veins of each 
second following st of the eighth round ; instead of the first ch at the beginning 
of the round, work four ch ; the first three of these count as one dc; at the end 
of the round fasten to the third of the three ch, counting as one dc with one st. 

loth round. — Always alternately three ch, one sc, on the next ch of the pre- 
ceding round. 

nth round. — At the beginning of this round work si to the middle of the next 
ch scallop, then always alternately three ch, one sc on the middle stitch of the 
following ch scallop of the preceding round. 

12th and lyth rounds. — One sc on each ch scallop of the preceding round, 
five ch after each sc. 

i8th and 2ist rounds. — One sc on each ch scallop of the preceding round, 
seven ch after each sc. 

Surround the cover thus completed with small crocheted rosettes, which are 
worked, each separately, similar to the middle rosette of the part completed. 
Begin each rosette with a foundation of ten st, close these in a ring with one si, 
and then work the first round. Five times alternately three ch, one sc on the 
second following foundation st. Then the second round. On each ch scallop 
of the preceding round work one sc, one s dc, three dc, one s dc, one sc. 

Work two more leaflet circles in the same manner ; in the first round of the 
first of these two circles, work five ch for each leaflet ; in the following round 
work on each five ch one sc, one s dc, five dc, one s dc, one sc ; enlarge the 
leaflet of the third circle in the same proportion. 

'jth round. — On each leaflet of the sixth round work 5 dc, 1 ch after each dc ; 
work 3 ch, instead of the first dc. At the end of the round fasten to the third 
of the 3 ch with 1 si. 



16 REAL SCOTCH CROCHET THREAD. 



8th round. — Always alternately 1 sc on the next ch of the preceding round, 5 
ch. In working this round fasten the rosettes to each other with 1 si each, and 
to the completed centre of the cover also. 

Work 5 rounds of alternating ch scallops, on the outer edge of the rosette 
circle thus joined, with the completed centre ; each of the scallops counts 7 ch 
and 1 sc on the middle stitch of a ch scallop of the preceding round. 

6th round. — Work 2 dc divided by 3 ch on the same ch scallop on which the 
last sc of the preceding round has been worked (in this, as well as in the fol- 
lowing rounds, work 8 ch instead of the first dc)* 3 ch, 5 dc on the following 
ch scallop, of the preceding round, 3 ch, 2 dc, divided by 3 ch on the following 
ch scallop, and repeat from *. At the end of this, as well as of each of the fol- 
lowing rounds, fasten to the third of the 3 ch that count as first dc of the round 
with 1 si, and work 1 si to the middle of the following ch scallop. 

yth round. — Two dc divided by three ch, on the 1st ch scallop (this is the 
same scallop on the first stitches of which si has been worked), * four ch 10 dc 
(these are worked on the one ch before the next five dc of the preceding 
round, on the following five dc and the one ch a^^^r the five d c referred to),

Crocheted Stripe for Tidy. 




This is done from design easily by good crocheters. Make the rounds 
separately, join as seen in design, then add side edges last. Use the white or 
drab Finlayson, Bousfield & Co.'s, REAL SCOTCH CROCHET THREAD, 
about No. 60. This may be worked over a fine cotton cord to make it firm. 
Make as many strips as necessary, join and trim top and bottom with knotted 
fringe of the thread, or the stripes may be used with velvet or satin.

ing second double, 1 chain *. Repeat from * to *. 

Following this pattern there are 4 repetitions of it, in each of which the shell 
is slightly larger than in the preceding one. To accomplish this, work the 2 dc, 
separated by 3 chain of first row on both sides of the middle scallop in the pre- 
ceding row in the next 3 repetitions, and in the fourth work them on the middle 
double of the middle 2 scallops ; work 1 chain more between these 2 dc, in 
every repetition, and in the fourth work 8 chain on both sides instead of T ; in 
the second row of the first 3 repetitions work 8 dc, instead of 6, and in the fourth 
work 10 dc, which will cause a corresponding increase in the following rows and 
in the scallops in the last. Lastly surround the entire collar with an edging in 
same pattern, increasing at corners as needed. — Harfer's Bazaar. 



Baby's Bonnet, Crocheted. 




Three balls coarsest number of Finlayson, Bousfield & Co.'s, REAL SCOTCH 
CROCHET THREAD, 3 yards of ribbon, color of satin, lining 2 inches wide. 

Commence in the centre of the crown with 4 stitches, join round ; work 
12 double under the chain over a fine cotton cord ; this will give firmness to the 
work, and dispense with the necessity for a stiff shape ; increase gradually

in every round by working two stitches in every fourth stitch, until the crown is 
the size required In the next row pass over every fifth stitch, doubles into the 
rest. Work one inch without increase or decrease. Now work in rows back- 
wards and forwards, leaving a third of the band unworked for the opening for 
the neck. 

For the brim, work on one-third of the centre-stitches in front of the band 
at the end of each row work on three more stitches of the last row of the head, 
and increase three times in each alternate row to raise the front of the bonnet ; 
this increase must be made about six times. Continue until you have worked 
up the last stitches of the band 

The curtain is best soft, therefore should not be worked over the cord. 
Work quite across the back oi bonnet, commencing at the brim on one side, 
and finishing at the brim on the other side. Sew a wire to the edge of the 
brim ; line with satin, leaving it full at the edge to form a little puffing ; run a 
cord through the back above the curtain, tie in a bow, and finish the ends with 
balls. The ribbon is arranged in bows at the top, and is twisted • and brought 
down each side, where it is sewn, and ends are left to form strings.

Another Child's Collar, Crocheted. 

Use feather-edge braid and Finlayson, Bousfiekl & Co.'s, REAL SCOTCH 
CROCHET THREAD, white. The lower part of the collar is filled in with 
small flowers and the wrong side of the work forms the right side ,of the collar. 
The rows or strips run up and down from the neck ; three flowers in the first 
row alternating with two in the second. This model is given in size for a 
child of ten years. 

Make 1 sc in the third loop from end of braid ; (a) 5 ch, miss 3 loops on the 
braid, 1 sc in the next loop ; repeat from (a) 4 times ; 11 ch miss 3 loops on 
braid, 1 sc in the next loop, (b) Turn the work or braid over and make the 
leaf on the other side, thus : 1 sc in the 1st stitch of the 11 ch counting from 
the stitch already on the needle : 1 treble in each of the next 4 stitches, 1 sc in 
the next or 5th stitch. This forms the first leaf of the first flower. (There are 
three flowers in this row or strip of 6 leaves each.) Now, 5 ch, miss 3 loops 
on the braid, 1 sc in the next loop ; turn, work back on the 5 ch and make a leaf 
the same as the first leaf. In working up this side of the braid only two leaves 
of each flower are made, (except the third flower at the bottom of the row w'here 
all the leaves are made.) In working the opposite side of the braid the re- 
maining 4 leaves are made. 

Now go on with the work between the flowers thus : 7 ch, miss 3 loops on the 
braid, 1 sc in the next loop, 5 ch, miss 3 loops, 1 sc in next loop ; 5 ch, miss 3 
loops, 1 sc in the next loop ; 11 ch, repeat from (b) once. The last stitch of 
each leaf is worked in the fifth stitch of the 11 ch which forms a small ring for 
the centre of flower. 

Proceed to make the flower at the bottom of row which forms a scallop : 11 
ch, miss 3 loops on braid, 1 sc in the next loop ; turn ; make a leaf the same as 
first leaf ; 5 ch, miss 3 loops on braid, 1 sc in the next loop : turn ; make a leaf 
the same as before. This forms the two leaves : (In working the remaining 
four leaves of this flower and the four leaves of each of the two succeeding 
flowers, do not turn the work.) Now for the third leaf : (c) 5 ch, miss 3 loops 
on braid, 1 sc in the next loop : turn, work back on the 5 ch and make the leaf, 



REAL score IT CROCirET THREAD. 20 



but remember not to turn the work over, on the wrong side ; repeat from (c) 3 
times. 

The 6th leaf of each flower in all the rows is formed by working a treble in 
each of the five stitches left of the 11 ch, in beginning each flower ; (d) 2 ch, 1 
sc in the following loop on braid ; 2 ch, 1 sc in the third loop of the 5 ch on 
opposite side ; 2 ch, miss 3 loops on braid, 1 sc in the next loop ; 2 ch, 1 sc in 
the 3d loop of the 5 ch ; 1 ch, miss 3 loops, 1 sc in the next loop ; 2 ch, miss 2 
stitches of the Y ch, 1 sc in the next stitch, 1 treble in each of the next stitches 
of 7 ch ; (this forms the third leaf of second flower ; the other three leaves are 
made the same as the last three leaves of the preceding flower;) repeat from 
(d) once ; 2 ch, 1 sc in the following loop ; (e) 2 ch, 1 sc in the third of the 5 ch 
on opposite side ; 2 ch, miss 3 loops, 1 sc in the next loop ; repeat from (e) 3 
times ; 5 ch, miss 3 loops on braid, 1 sc in each of the next 3 loops on braid. 

This completes the first row or strip for the width and forms a scallop (there 
are 26 scallops in all) for the bottom of collar. Work 25 more strips in the same 
manner, repeating from the 5 chain, joining each scallop together as you con- 
tinue the work. Fasten off securely and join the cotton to the first loop on the 
unworked side of the braid of this strip, and make a chain of (f) 3 stitches, miss 
1 loop on braid, 1 sc in the next loop ; repeat from (f) 39 times. 

You now have reached the first inside row. Proceed to work as follows : 11 
ch, miss 3 loops on braid, 1 sc in the next loop ; turn the work and make the 
flower. There are two flowers in each of the inside rows, and the flowers are 
all made the same throughout the collar. The inside rows are made the same 
as the former rows of the collar, except after working the second flower of each 
row there are 8 spaces of 5 ch each. In making the 8 spaces do not miss the 
3 loops on braid, but work 1 sc in each of the 7 successive loops. This turns 
the point for top of collar. Work up the other half of strip and around the 
scallops at the bottom of the next strip already made (which will bring you to 
second inside strip) thus : 2 ch, miss 1 loop on braid, 1 sc in the next loop ; re- 
peat 8 times. 

Now go on and fill in the collar, working as in the above strip. 

For the foundation edge around the neck of collar, fasten thread at the top of 
1st strip and make 5 ch, 1 treble under the 1st 5 ch in beginning the strip, (*) 2 
ch, 1 treble under the next 5 ch at the top of next strip, 2 ch, repeat from (*) 
all across ; turn. 

2d foundation row : 5 ch, 1 treble under the 1st 2 ch of previous row, (*) 2 
ch, 1 treble under the next 2 ch, repeat from (*) to end. 

For a finish around the neck, take another piece of braid and make a small 
strip of one flower each, thus : fasten thread in the 1st loop of braid and make 
(*) 5 ch, miss 3 loops, 1 sc in the next loop ; 11 ch, miss 3 loops on braid, 1 sc 
in the next loop; turn. Go on and make the flower. After finishing the 
flower, make 2 ch, 1 sc in the following loop on braid ; 2 ch, 1 sc in the 3d loop 
of the 5 ch on opposite side ; 5 ch, miss 3 loops, 1 sc in each of the next 3 sue- 



30 REAL SCOTCH CROCHET THREAD. 



cessive loops. This forms a scallop ; make 16 more scallops, repeating from 
(*). Turn, make an edge around the scallops and fill in the strip on the un- 
worked side of braid, thus : 3 ch, miss 1 loop on braid, (*) 1 sc in the next loop ; 
repeat from (*) 11 times, 5 ch, miss 3 loops, 1 sc in each of the next 8 loops on 
braid ; 2 ch, 1 sc in the 3d of the 5 ch on opposite side ; 2 ch, miss 3 loops, 1 
sc in the next loop ; 3 ch, miss 1 loop, repeat from (*) to end. 

This finishes the strip ; dc it on around the neck so that it lies down over the 
collar.

THE BORDER. 

The wide border which covers the lower half of the parasol consists of one 
row of large ornamental squares and one row of pineapples below the squares. 
The squares are worked in this way : Make a chain of 5 stitches and join into 
a ring. 

1st round. — Work up 7 ch, to take the place of a treble, and under the ring 
work 4 groups of 5 trebles each, separated by 5 ch ; join in the fourth stitch of 
the seventh ch. 

2nd rou7id. — 2 d cs in each stitch of the 5 ch, 2 d cs between each of the trebles ; 
repeat all round. 

^rd round. — 4 ch, to take the place of a treble ; 1 treble in the next stitch ; * 
2 ch, miss 1, 1 treble in the next stitch ; repeat from * all round, except on each 
corner where you make 3 ch and treble in the next 2 d cs, instead of missing one 
stitch. 

,p:h round. — 5 ch, 1 dc in the same loop ; * 5 ch, miss 2 trebles, 1 dc in the 
next stitch ; repeat from * all around, except on the corners where you make 5 
ch, 1 dc in the same loop. This completes one square. Make 15 more like it, 
arrange them around the parasol, sewing them on below the lace work already 
described and joining the opposite points that run'diagonally across the squares. 
The last row of pineapples around the bottom of the parasol is made thus : 
Make a chain of five stitches. 

First Row. — Miss 4 in the fifth loop work 3 trebles, 2 ch, 3 trebles; this 
forms one shell ; turn. 

Secojid Row. — 3 ch, 3 trebles, 2 ch, 3 trebles all under the 2 ch of first shell ; 
treble on last treble of shell ; turn. 



REAL SCOTCH CROCHET THREAD, 35 



Repeat the second row until you have made a strip of 10 shells. Under this 
strip a scallop is worked, with the pineapples in the centre. This begins on the 
eleventh row. 

Eleventh Row. — 5 ch, miss 2 shells ; 3 trebles, 2 ch, 3 trebles (forming one 
shell), all under the 3 ch between eighth and ninth shells ; 4 ch, miss 3, 3

miss 3 shells, 1 shell (3 tr, 2 ch, 3 tr as before) under 3 ch between second and third 
shells ; 5 ch 1 sc (single crochet) under first treble of last shell ; turn. There 
are now 3 shells along the edge of the strip of 10 shells. A row of shells is to 
be worked in the first and third of these shells, while the middle one forms the 
foundation for the pineapple. 

Tivelfth Reno. — 10 d cs under the 5 ch ; 1 ch, 1 shell on first shell ; 4 ch, 10 
trebles under 2 ch of second shell ; 4 ch, 1 shell on third shell ; 5 ch, 1 sc on 1 
ch after last shell ; turn. 

Thirteenth Row. — Work along this 5 ch in sc until the first shell is reached; 
then 1 ch, shell on shell ; 4 ch, 1 dc between the first and second trebles ; * 2 
ch, 1 dc between the next 2 trebles ; repeat from * until there are 9 d cs in all, 
the last being between the ninth and tenth trebles ; then 4 ch, shell on shell, 5 
ch, 1 sc under 1 ch after shell ; turn. 

Fourteenth Row. — 10 d cs under 5 ch ; 1 ch shell on shell ; 3 ch, 1 dc under first 
2 ch ; * 2 ch, 1 dc under next 2 ch ; repeat from * until there are 8 d cs, then 3 
ch, shell on shell ; 5 ch, 1 sc under 1 ch after shell ; turn. 

Fifteenth Row. — Work back along the 5 ch until first shell is reached, then 1 
ch, shell on shell ; 3 ch, 1 dc under first 2 ch ; * 2 ch, 1 dc under next 2 ch, 
repeat from * until there are 7 d cs ; 3 ch, shell on shell ; 5 ch, 1 sc under 1 ch 
after shell ; turn. 

Sixteenth Row. — Like fourteenth, except that there are only 6 d cs in pine- 
apple instead of 8 dcs. 

Seventeenth Roru. — Like fifteenth, but 5 d cs instead of 7 d cs. 

Eighteenth Row. — Like sixteenth ; but only 4 d cs. 

Nineteenth Rati). — Work back along the 5 ch to first shell; 1 ch, shell on 
shell, 3 ch, 1 dc under 2 ch ; 2 ch, 1 dc under next 2 ch ; 2 ch, 1 dc under next 
2 ch ; 3 ch, shell on shell ; 5 ch, 1 sc under 1 ch ; turn. 

Tzuentietli Ro7v. — 10 d cs under 5 ch ; 1 ch, shell on shell ; 3 ch, 1 dc under 
first 2 ch ; 2 ch 1 dc under next 2 ch ; 3 ch, shell on shell ; 5 ch, 1 sc under 1 ch ; 
turn. 

Twenty-first Row. — sc along the 5 ch to first shell ; 1 ch, shell on shell ; 3 ch, 
work along the 3 ch in sc, then shell on shell ; 5 ch, 1 sc under 1 ch ; turn. 
The pineapple is now completed and the two parts of the scallop are to be 
joined. 

Twenty-second Row. — 10 d cs under 5 ch ; 5 ch, 1 sc under the 1 ch beyond 
the first shell worked in the last row, or between the first 2 shells of the other 



REAL SCOTCH CROCHET THREAD. 



half of the scallop. This joins the two sets of shells. Now, instead of working 
back along the ch turn, work in sc on the first 3 trebles of the first shell and 
the last 3 trebles of the second shell, or 6 trebles in all, joining the third and 
fourth trebles together by putting the hook through both and working off the 3 
loops as one sc. This brings you to the outer edge of the last made shell, 
where the last 5 ch started ; turn. 

Twenty-third rmo. — 10 d cs under 5 ch ; 1 sc under 1 ch ; 10 d cs under each 
of the other 5 ch along this half of the scallop, with a sc under each 1 ch 
between them. This finishes the scallop. Now 1 ch, shell on the last shell of 
the upper strip. Turn and continue working as at first until there are again 10 
shells, when you start the second scallop by repeating from the eleventh row. 
The first four loops on the edge of each scallop are to be joined in the working 
to last four loops of the previous scallop by working 5 d cs then taking the hook 
out, putting it through the middle dc of previous scallop, drawing the loop 
through and finishing the 10 d cs as usual. 

The upper half of the cover is tacked along the upper part of parasol. The 
squares are sewn on below this last round, and then the pineapples, the points 
of the scallop coming to within half an inch of the edge of the parasol.

Hair-Pin Work. 



Get a good-size common hair-pin, though bone ones are used. Use Finlay- 
son, Bousfield & Co.'s REAL SCOTCH CROCHET THREAD, coarse or 
fine, as desired. 

To commence, hold the hair-pin in the left hand, the round part upwards, 
twist the cotton round the left prong, pass it over the right prong to the back of 
the hair-pin, and lay it over the left forefinger. Take up a crochet hook and 
draw this back thread to the front under the first crossed one, and make a chain 
by taking up fresh cotton and pulling it through. Take the hook out and turn 
the hair-pin ; * the cotton will now be in front ; put it over the right hand pin to 
the back, hook into loop, and make a chain by drawing the cotton through, then 
put the hook through the twist on the left hand prong, and make a chain having 



REAL SCOTCH CROCHET THREAD. 41 



two stitches on the hook, make a stitch drawing cotton through these two loops, 
so that only one loop is left. Take out the hook, turn the work, and repeat 
from*. When the hair-pin is filled with work slip it off ; to steady the prong 
ends put them through some of the last loops, and continue to work as before. 
Work that is well done of this kind has large open loops at the sides of uni- 
form length.

Embroidery. 

The origin of embroider}- is lost in antiquity, but it is known to have existed 
before painting, and to have been the first medium of reproducing natural 
objects in their natural colors. 



REAL SCOTCH CROCHET THREAD, 



59 



The simplest form of embroidery is executed in outline work, and the stitch 
used is the simple stem stitch. A very popular article now used in embroidery 
is the linen flosses which come in beautiful shades, and repeated washing only 
improves the color. It is manufactured in Scotland and the sole agents for the 
United States are J. R. Leeson & Co., 298 Devonshire street, Boston, Mass. 
The flosses may be obtained at all retail stores.

REAL SCOTCH CROCHET THREAD. 



Materials. — About two yards of robin-egg blue pongee. Decorate each end 
with a different design, as seen in cut. On one end have a light delicate vine 
which is executed in outline stitch using shades of linen floss, above described, 
to taste. Finish the other end with embroidered disks. Sew a pretty fringe on 
each end. When finished tie the scarf with a ribbon bow a little to one side of 
centre. 




Embroidered Apron. See description on page 6i 



Embroidered Sunshade Cover. 



If you have a good parasol frame, rip off the worn cover and cut out a new 
one by it. Pongee or sateen is pretty. Many use white. Cut the gores exactly 
by the old ones, and embroider each one separately. Scattered flowers are

more used now than single bunches. Pansies, wild roses, clover, daisies, forget- 
me-nots, gold circles, an occasional dragon-fly or beetle, among the sprays, are 
all good designs. Do the work in outline, with the linen flosses, or, if you jire- 
fer, solidly. 

Erabroidered Apron. 

This is made of plain white muslin. A strip of fine pongee is basted on, 
and this is first embroidered with any pretty design. Trim apron all round 
with a very fine knitted or crocheted lace of Finlayson, Bousfield<S: Co.'s REAL 
SCOTCH CROCHET THREAD. Black aprons are also very fashionable, 
and are pretty when embroidered with the linen flosses. 



Pretty Design for Apron. 

Materials — Biack Alpacca or sateen. Shades of Finlayson, Bousfield »S: 




Co.'s linen flosses, designated below. The design may be put in the corner, or 
on bottom of apron. The pants of boy are worked in buff, the waist-coat blue, 
the coat brown, striped red and white stockings and cap. The plants are done 
in shades of green, and the railings brown. This design is also suitable for 
hand-bags, cushions, table scarfs, etc. 



REAL SCOTCH CROCHET THREAD, 



Embroidered Tidy for a Sofa. 

Get very coarse hand-made linen, and cut the tidy 14^ inches wide, 1 yard 
T<)i inches long. The thick, straight edges, which go round the embroidery? 
are dark-blue linen floss; the triangles on the edge-border are alternately of

blue and yellow, each with a centre of ecru color. All the stalks and foliage 
are dark blue, while the flowers, blossoms and buds are edged with blue, filled 
up with yellow, and have a centre of ecru; the latter color is repeated on the 
dots of the stamens which are partly blue, partly ecru. The yellow filling of 
the vase in the middle appears alternately plain and striped, as seen. Work 
the peacocks with two rows of blue-stalk stitch ; the crown, beak and legs are 
entirely blue, the breast and neck have blue spots on a yellow satin-stitch 
ground, these being smaller on the neck than on the breast. Work the feathers 
of blue and ecru. The fringe is Z% inches long, made of strands of blue and 
white linen floss, or a deep lace may be crocheted of REAL SCOTCH CRO- 
CHET THREAD No. 50, and sewed on.

REAL SCOTCH CROCHET THREAD, 



A "Work Apron. 

Materials — coarse linen outlined with the linen flosses before mentioned. 
The bottom part of apron is brought up and fastened forming a pocket. Trim 
apron all round with crocheted or knitted lace. 



Design for Sofa Cushion. 

Get black, or any shade, sateen, and embroider, in outline stitch, the design 
shown in different shades of the linen floss, or, if preferred, all one shade. 
;Make up cushion as is usual. Trim all round with heavy cord and tassels. 



Embroidered Table Scarf. 




It will be easily seen from design how this scarf is put together. The mate- 
rial of the scarf is fine linen. The corner pieces are hemmed all round. Then 
take Java canvas and baste on the linen. Work a pretty cross-stitch design, with 
dark blue or red linen floss, used double. Then make a piece for centre of 
scarf. The canvas threads may be drawn out when finished, leaving the design 
on the linen. Put together with crocheted insertion and edge, or knitted of 
Finlayson, Bousfield & Co.'s REAL SCOTCH CROCHET THREAD. The 
first design in book would be pretty. 



Felt Table Cover. 

Get peacock or robin's egg blue felt. Baste canvas on wherever you intend to 
work a design. Then with dark yellow linen floss taken double work designs 
as seen in cut. When finished trim all round with pretty lace. It is quite the 
style to embroider lace with the shades of floss used in article.

silesia, is turned over 8)^ inches at both ends and then sewn together so as to 
leave a pocket on each side, the two edges being ornamented with a most 
effective border worked into the stuff. A section of the border is shown. Use 
dark blue-linen floss for the embroidered stais used double. For the drawn 




work squares draw out 16 threads in length and width leaving standing 8 
threads. Leave outer edges by overcasting, using for drawn work white linen 
floss or blue. Crochet edge one blue one white scallop. 



Embroidered Towel. 



This linen towel is embroidered on both ends in some one of the many pretty 
cross stitch designs. Use blue or red linen floss and do cross-stitch over a piece 
of canvas the threads of which are afterwards drawn out. 

Just above the fringe a narrow strip of drawn thread work is done.

Sofa Cushion. 



This is for common use. Make a pillow filled with feathers and covered 
with colored silesia. Then get the openwork scrim which can be bought cheaply 
and on the plain stripes with linen flosses embroider some pretty design. The 
cushion may be covered both sides with the scrim and finished off at 4 corners 
with bows of ribbon.

A Pretty Pen- Wiper. 



Take for the top of the pen-wiper a piece of embroidered felt. The em- 
broidery is done with shaded linen flosses. Under the top piece have three or 
four plain pieces of felt pinked. The edge of embr9idered piece is finished 
with a heavy gilt cord. Put a crescent ornament of gilt in the centre.

Embroidered Doilies. 

These doilies are of congress canvas embroidered in cross stitch with linen 
flosses of blue or red shade ; the canvas is cut an inch and a half longer each 




way than is needed for the doily, and the edges are fringed out 1^ inches. 
They are all worked differently. Any pretty cross stitch designs will do. 



Embroidered Tobacco Bag. 

The bag is of olive sateen or pongee, ornamented with figures worked in out- 
line with red linen floss. Work a monogram above the figures on front side. 
The edge is cut in scallops, and is buttonholed round top with red linen floss. 
The lower edge is drawn together and finished with a tassel. The bag is 5J^ 
inches deep and 7 inches wide ; it is lined with wash-leather or oil-silk. It has 
a slide about lyi inches from the top, with silk cord to draw it up and is 
finished with tassels. 

Richelieu Guipure. 

This is work of a modern date, and differs but little from Roman, Stras- 
bourg, and Venetian Embroidery. It is founded upon the ancient Point 
Coupe, or Cutwork, which was one of the first laces, and was extensively used 
in conjunction with Linen Embroidery on the Continent and in England from 
the fourteenth to the sixteenth centuries, when it was superseded by Reti- 
cella Lace. The modern Richelieu Guipure differs from the old Cutwork 
in being worked in more open patterns, and separated by Bars formed of 
threads Buttonholed over. In the old work the linen foundations were cut 



70 REAL SCOTCH CROCHET THREAD, 

and Buttonholed over wherever Bars were required, and the patterns were 
closer and more solid, almost entirely covered with needlework, and required 
greater patience and skill in their execution. 

For many varieties of trimmings and for washing materials, Richelieu 
Guipure is well adapted, for, as long as the foundation is selected of good 
strong stuff, there is no reason why the Embroidery should not be as lasting 
as the old Point Coupe, specimens of which, worked in the fifteenth century, 
are still to be seen. To work, select cream white, pure white, or ecru col- 
ored linen, or cotton foundation, upon which trace the outline of the pattern 
and indicate the lines for the Bars. Back this foundation with brown paper 
should it not be stiff, but this is not generally necessary. Then Run all 
the outlines with a double line of thread or silk, using a color matching 
the material; Run the second line of thread the sixteenth of an inch above 
the first, and work the Bars during the process of Running. These make 
thus: Throw two threads across the space the Bar is to cover, catch them 
well into the edges of the pattern, and then Buttonhole them thickly 
over, and make a PicoT in the centre Bar. Then carefully Buttonhole over 
every outline with the same colored silk or thread ; always turn the edge 
of the Buttonhole to the side of the material that is to be afterwards cut 
away. Great nicety is required to keep so many lines of Buttonhole all of 
the same width and thickness, and the second Running of each line will 
here prove very useful, as, if the needle be always put in just beyond it, 
the width of each line will be the same. The thickness will depend upon 
the perfect regularity of distance with which each stitch is taken after the 
preceding one. This Embroidery is done with Finlayson, Bousfield & Co.'s 
linen floss. The usual practice is to match the color of foundation, but 
red, blue, and black linen floss make pretty borders to ecru or drab- 
colored linens. 

If the work is intended for a trimming to a mantel board, one edge of it 
will be made straight where it is sewn on, and the other scalloped. This 
scalloped edge must be ornamented with Picots, like those made upon the 
Bars. Having finished all the Buttonholing, proceed to cut away the foun- 
dation material from under the Bars. Use sharp and small scissors, and 
cut very slowly from underneath the Bars and not over them. The Bars 
are much stronger and neater when made during the progress of Running 
than if worked when the material is cut away (as is sometimes recommended), 
but the cutting out of the superfluous stuff is rendered much more trouble- 
some by their presence. 

This work requires a background to throw it in relief, although it can be 
worked as an edging to table-cloths, and will then not require one. A col- 
ored cloth is the most suitable one for mantel borders, but satin or velvet 
look rich when Richelieu Guipure is used for cushions or banner screens.
